I have been wanting to learn how to make granola for a while but haven't had the motivation to do so. I was reading Ana-Maria blog BluebirdKisses, which is a wonderful inspirational blog by the way and she has some awesome recipes, I decided to do a take on her Maple Granola with Blueberries
and Cocoa.
Granola is my one of my favorite sweet treats. And, I thought it would be cool to make it myself.
So, here's what I did:
Ingredients:
-3 Cup of rolled oats (I used quick oats that I had in the cabinets)
-1 Cup of Almonds
-1 Pecans (I chopped mine)
-1/2 Walnuts
-1/4 Chia Seeds
-1/2 Sunflower Seeds
-1 Cup Unsweetened Coconut
-2 Cup Raisins
-3/4 Cup Pure Maple Syrup
-3 Tablespoons Coconut Oil
-1/2 Cup of Honey
Preheat oven for 350 and spread baking sheet with Parchment paper.
Mix oats, almonds, pecans, walnuts, chia seeds, and sunflower seeds in a bowl.
In a saucepan on low heat melt coconut oil, then add maple syrup and honey. Stir together, once mixed turn stove off and and pour over dry mixture. Stir until oats and nuts are coated and then spread thin layer onto baking sheet.
Place in oven 15-25 minutes or until golden brown. Move mixture around every 5 minutes to make sure it doesn't burn. 5 minutes before taking the granola out of the oven add coconut and mix. Once you take the granola out add raisins. Let cool. Once granola has cooled pour into an air tight container.
Bon Apetit! Use this recipe as a base to try your own combinations and it only takes 10 minutes to make!
